I put the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro microLED through hell over months of adventure, and it really does justify its massive price tag
The Garmin Fenix Pro 8 microLED hits the pinnacle of multisport smartwatch performance with a screen built from more than 400,000 individual LEDs, which pump out 4,500 NITs of light to throw serious shade on the Apple Watch Ultra 3’s 3,000 NITs. In real-world use, the Garmin delivers an eye-poppingly bright and sharp experience. The full suite of Garmin functionality from sleep tracking to a bewildering array of activities is on offer within a device that can monitor altitude, temperature, atmospheric pressure, is a fully-functioning dive watch and is loaded with both LTE and two-way satellite messaging. If the Fenix 9 is anything like this, it’ll be hard to beat.
